Installation issue

[NicolaCourtier]

Python Version

>3.6

Describe the bug

I tried to follow the instructions to install homebrew, pyenv and pyenv-virtualenv but unfortunately I encountered one of the Common build problems, specifically: https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/wiki/Common-build-problems#error-the-python-ssl-extension-was-not-compiled-missing-the-openssl-lib

Although I was able to find a workaround from stack overflow, I suggest that we switch to the same installation instructions as PyBaMM for consistency: https://docs.pybamm.org/en/latest/source/user_guide/installation/GNU-linux.html#install-pybamm

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

I encountered the issue on the first step of the installation instructions, when trying to create a pyenv-virtualenv. I am using WSL on Windows 10.

Relevant log output

No response

Hi @NicolaCourtier,

Can you confirm which pyenv you used? pyenv-win or pyenv?

The ongoing plan is to add multiple methods to readme's installation including the standard virtual-env method. If you can add that method to the readme that would be great.

Sounds good. To confirm, I was using pyenv in WSL.
